    It looks like 4-2-3-1 with Shaw starting

    Keep a high line and keep your heads up or things could get a bit salty.

    Lets get the job done!!! - Dont care how!!

    Either way... Got to be proud of them for reaching a first Major Final on foreign soil, especially as no one gave them a chance after the Group Stages.

    If we do lose I just hope its not as the result of a mistake that ends up being remembered like Southgate, Beckham, Rooney, Saka!!

    Figured he would start Shaw at left back. Obviously thinks he can last the 90 mins. More than likely to see Palmer & Watkins late on.
    Shaw does not need to last 90 minutes, when he starts tiring at about 60-70 minutes he can bring on Trippier as we will be winning 3-1 👍

    Kane better run his heart out tonight. 

    No excuses.

    Much better we go behind, as that seems to bring the best out of the team, and makes Southgate make positive subs.

    We go 1-0 up, then the old cautious tactics will return, and we'll repeat the final 3 years ago.

    why are Scottish people so pathetic. If Scotland had a big game, I would want them to do well. 
    The opening game of the tournament was one of the highlights of the last month. F*ck em.

    I see it as like us joking about hating the French etc.

    There's historical reasons etc, but now it's all very tongue in cheek.  Yes they want us to lose but there's no real spite or malice behind 90% of it.

    International equivalent of us wanting Real Madrid/Barcelona to beat Liverpool/Arsenal.
    Maybe an age thing but with my gang (mates since 77) it’s real and intense. Most of them would take beating England over winning the Euros all day long. I think most of them wont watch tonight. They are really pathetic. Losers😉
    That's the other 10% 😆 

    I'm not saying 90% want us to win really, they definitely don't, but it's definitely the 'we'll never hear the end of it' etc type stuff than a real burning hatred these days.

    There's been some comment that Yamal is a Tottenham fan, due to those Spurs trousers. Hopefully the Spurs trophy curse will strike him tonight.

    Shame Trent wasn't up to it in the first games. Would have loved to see us start 1-11

    I'm on my second glass of Rioja 🍷Mustn't start throwing that about. Had Paella for dinner. Are we expecting Spanish royalty to be there. Ashley Giles?

    Decent chance Gomez gets on tonight. Trippier probably injured, Shaw making his first start since Feb and marking the break out star of the tournament. If England are leading or level later in the game, then Gomez for a potentially tiring Shaw may be the safer option available to Southgate. If we’re trailing, of course, then we may see Eze at wingback again.

    Things I’ve taken notice of in this picture. Drives a solid family car. Hasn’t quite got over his childhood Batman obsession, but is quite ashamed of it given the strategicly placed mouse. Curtain at the ready to be drawn across the screen should the wife enter the room when pornhub is on. Doesn’t want to drink to strong a cider because of work tomorrow. Wallet is quite plump - probably full of notes (because he only drinks cheap cider).

    Haha... I drive a Honda Civic so can make your own mind over that one - Definitely haven't gotten over my Superhero obsession since I was a child.

    Fraid the curtain doesnt close that way, but thats a great idea!! - Already had a few glasses of prosecco today, so dont want to be drinking too much. Wallet is bloody empty, hence why I drink the cheap cider ;)

    Lot of pre-game hype for a football match. More like a bloody pop concert. Just get on with the football ffs.

    Can't let them just constantly pass the ball about
